D408
Dinky 408 Big Bedford Lorry. Harder to find mid-blue and orange-yellow version. Near mint/boxed.
Notes
This classic Dinky commercial has a mid blue cab and chassis, with deep orange-yellow back and yellow wheels. More unusual colour finish.
With a superb lustre, this striking example looks very close to mint. A couple of little dots head-on and a couple of little rubs at a body line detail above the rear wheel arch on one side. None of the usual marks on the cab roof or at the edges of the deep orange-yellow back. On closest examination, we have noted a few touch-ins to the yellow back top edge.
The fresh and bright yellow picture box is a very attractive example with very minor wear. Vibrant strong colours and no splits or graffiti. Shiny staples too!
